TV producer in Chicago contacted me in 1998 about doing characters for 30 second animation spots in an hour long street rod and hot rod television show. Some scene scripts were sent, initial drawings done and even a preliminary video tape made. The project was drawn out for about three years. He had buyers for the show WITHOUT the animation but he really had his mind set on animation (similar to Tracy Ulman's show and Matt Groenig's animation which became the Simpsons) and music (he created his own garage band for the tunes)

Here are the original pieces:
